[Tsuna watches him leave, the flame dissipating from his forehead. His voice has returned to normal, and he knows Zelos can still hear him.]

I'm sorry. I know it's difficult. But I can see that you want to fight just as much as the rest of us do.

Please, Zelos. The sooner you come back... the sooner that we can finish this battle.

[He narrows his eyes at the disappearing figure. He's not sure if he's still in earshot; it doesn't matter.]

We need you, Zelos.
